"Sprout"

This is a 2D short made in my studio production class. A total of 10 students had a hand in the creation of this.

My roles were:
-Storyboard Artist
-Animator (lead and in-between)
-Compositor

Storyboards:

My part to storyboard was the intro. This is just the first storyboards that were presented as ideas. These scenes were not all used with only a couple of them being approved. This is only page 1 as two other people in the small group had the rest of this version. All in all there were about 4 or 5 different versions of this story.

(In this version of the story, it had a much darker feel, with it actually showing characters dying. The final version had all the characters just running away and no signs of death)

(Some storyboards that were cleaned up and added to the main lines of storyboards. They include scene 4, 5, 10a, and 10b. Scene 10 was later scraped and changed)

Animation:

My main scene to animate (and later composite along with other scenes) was Scene 13b. I was working on this single scene from the original pencil sketch to the final animation process.

 

(This is the triumphant scene where Sprout finally stands up to the dark shadows)
